Geni Roadmap

From Wiki

The listed features are accumulated from the forum where they have been acknowledged by a member of the Geni Team (date stamp). All qualified roadmap listings should therefore have at least one date stamped reference to a forum thread. Link posted here should preferably include the post number (click the '#' on the bottom of the Geni team members forum post before copying the url). Ideally there would be only one thread in the forum requesting a feature.

May 07: "...a feature we are working on and will be releasing in the near future. This will allow a user, who is registered and attached to a tree, to merge their tree with another existing tree..." [2] - BeRad

Jun 07: "...There are a few features that we need to finalize before rolling out tree merging and GEDCOM import, in order to do them the right way. I am confident once we release these features our users will be very satisfied. Stay tuned!" [3] - Noah

Jul 07: "...We are working on tree merging right now. We expect that this feature will allow users to have very large trees, so currently most of our time is being spent on underlying performance enhancements. We are also designing easy ways for users to confirm which relatives are common to both family trees..." [4] - Elliot

Nov 07: "...For our initial release, you'll be able to merge two unclaimed profiles, or else a claimed profile and an unclaimed profile..." [5] - Mike

Planned features

Development is in progress by users on the wiki. The Geni Team has not reported any official yet. Geni Forum raises the question almost every day. [12]
